when it's green you're connected to google servers and services (gmail push, backup, etc). When it's grey, you're not. In both cases you still have a connection to the internet/your network.
Been answered many times, please search.

[Q] Loss of network/signal

Hello,
I updated my Xperia L to 2.17 yesterday,and today,about a few hours ago,my phone lost all signal.
How it happened was weird though-
I first noticed this when i tried to make a call and it wouldn't go through.At that time,the signal bars were full.
Then,i tried to send a text message.Same issue-not delivered,with the signal bars still full.
I thought it could be network issue and put the phone into airplane mode and out of,about 3-4 times.still the signal bars are full,but no call/message was going through.
Fed up,i rebooted the phone twice.Same status! .signal meter is showing full,but no calls/messages going through.
Then,after 5 minutes,the signal meter showed no signal-emergency calls only.
then,about half an hour,network came back up and i was able to use the phone as usual.
It couldnt be a provider issue as another phone with the same provider sim worked fine.I also had plenty of talk-time left so,its not an issue of that either.plus,i was in direct line of sight of multiple towers.
for some background-the sim is about 4 years old.plus,to get 3g working on my phone,i had to play with the settings a bit and it could only be activated after my service provider did some hocus-pocus.since then,i got fed up with their ridiculous prices and shifted back to 2g.
The same sim was in use in a hardy nokia1100 and then a Nokia 6020 till a month back,when i got the XL.and never have i faced such an issue before.
Is it a phone issue?I have attached a screenshot of the battery usage-it shows the network issue in red.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2177124&stc=1&d=1376067822
Initially,i neglected this in the battery page-this is not the first time the battery page shows network was dropped.it has happened multiple times before,only-this time,i saw it happen live when i was using the phone.so,its not a sudden issue and has been there for a bit of a while.
Another fault i noticed sometimes-when i receive a call-it drops off and i have to dial them back.
However,if i were to make the call,it works just fine.happens very rarely though.
so,do i change the sim or go to the service center?is it a radio/antenna issue?
Kindly advise,
Regards
Suraj

[Q] Signal Drop... but Not Lost

Hello all!
I was wondering if anyone has been experiencing signal loss (but not 100% cut-out) when the phone is asleep? Like if I have my phone on my desk, leave it alone for 20 minutes, I am greeted with no signal. I have never dropped a call (aside from the usual places) but it is just odd.
I have attached a screenshot taken just seconds after waking my phone. Notice the bars are greyed out (white shows a signal), but it is not the outline which would indicate that I am not connected to a tower, meaning no service.
I am on AT&T and all I have done is switch the SIM from my AT&T-Branded HTC One, to the Nexus 5. I have LTE and H+ but I'm not sure if there are any modifications I needed to make to the APN, or if I should just get a new SIM card from AT&T?
Forgive the n00b question, I am very new to GSM-based devices. I did not find any relevant posts about this issue.
Thanks in advance

signal sucks nationwide on nexus 5, do a google search if you don't believe me

[Q] no signal

Hi guys, recently my phone came back from having the screen replaced as it had been cracked in the past. Now the signal strength on the phone has never reached more than 3 bars. if i am lucky i get 1 bar but most of the time there is no signal on the phone. So i cannot receive or make any calls when i need to. Does anyone have any ideas as to what the problem may be??? :-/

Losing signal while switching 3G-2G-3G....

I noticed a big problem with the radio.
I live in an area where the 3G signal is not very strong, and it happens that the phone changes alone in 2G mode, then return to 3G when the signal is better..
It happens, however, that during these steps 3G-2G or 2G-3G phone loses the line, so that in that passage i'm not contactable if someone phone me, I realize that I get the SMS notification later.
I noticed that the indicator of the phone signal is reset, and I can not even call. As an indication of the lack of signal is about 4-5 sec
Someone said me there is the same problem on Moto G
With other devices like Galaxy S2 and Motorola Defy+, in the same place with the same operator and sim didn't happens...

This is normal, just probably the moto g is trying to connect to a multi-carrier 3G, which takes few seconds.Also switching between 3G and 2G involves dropping the current connection.
My advice in your case would be to switch to 2G entirely.

It isn't normal, aldo Motorola assistance said it…
